Jexal's Pizza Wing-zeria Mchenry
Description
A lively downtown McHenry eatery offering affordable Detroit‑style pizzas, wings and comforting appetizers. Standout dishes like lemon chicken soup, spinach artichoke dip and cheesy breadsticks earn praise, though occasional dry or overcooked items, cold plates and delivery mistakes occur. Service swings from warm, attentive bartenders and servers to spotty seating and order accuracy. Heated outdoor terrace and a friendly bar atmosphere make it a solid weekend destination, but busy‑corner parking and inconsistent delivery/service temper the overall experience.

OMG. This place is a joke. We have actually been customers for years and tonight we ordered a large pizza with 3 sides for delivery. Half the pizza had spinach on it and it was totally inedible. Tasted rancid. Nobody could eat it. The other half was fine. We called and asked for a refund for half the pizza. The first girl said they could remake and send. We said fine. Then the owner, name is Mike, got on the phone with my son and was very argumentative and made us feel like we were trying to pull a fast one. I decided right there, after being a former customer, that we would not be going there again. This guy is pure nonsense. He offered a credit, but we will never go again and will tell all our friends and family in Mchenry this situation. I'm posting this on Facebook as well.
First time here last night and the food was not the greatest. Ordered an Alfredo chicken bacon ranch pizza that was sooo dry. Literally no Alfredo sauce on there. Asked the server for a side of it and got charged. Little ridiculous when the pizza had no sauce on it to begin with. My friends boneless wings came out cold, the server did fix that for her. The service was also just alright for it not being busy in there at all.
I get Jexels at least once a week. Lately the service for delivery has been pretty bad. This is the amount of fries I received with my burger.How does that even Happen? Did the driver eat them? I don't think I can recommend them until they start paying more attention. I expect more at the price I'm paying.
On a different note, the calamari was overcooked and not enjoyable at all. However, despite these issues, the positive aspects of our experience outweighed the negatives. We definitely plan to return and try more items from the menu; it seems like a great spot for a weekend outing!
I really enjoy the atmosphere of this restaurant. It has a lively vibe, and the food is quite delicious. The only drawback is the parking, which can be tricky because it's situated on a busy corner in downtown McHenry. Nonetheless, I had a great experience and intend to come back. The pizza prices were very affordable. Overall food rating: 5/5.
